Arrest For Stolen Car That Was Returned To Owner In Fort Worth Opens Up ‘Can Of Worms'

An arrest for a stolen car stirred up controversy about how Fort Worth police responded.

“This entire car was filled from top to bottom with just evidence, and other victims’ properties,” says Katie Crum at the repair shop where the recovered vehicle was towed.

Crum says she was initially grateful when she learned that police had made an arrest and recovered her teen daughter’s stolen car– but then that gratitude turned to frustration when she got to the impound lot and got a look at what was left inside. And what the arresting officer had apparently overlooked.
